About SchoolZone

We help families find the perfect balance between quality education and affordable housing across Australia.

Our Story

SchoolZone was founded in 2024 by a group of parents who were frustrated with the difficulty of finding accurate information about school zones and property prices in one place.

As parents ourselves, we understand the crucial role that education plays in a child's future. We also recognize that housing affordability is a significant concern for many Australian families.

By combining comprehensive school data with property price information, we've created a powerful tool that helps families make informed decisions about where to live based on both educational quality and housing affordability.

Our mission is to democratize access to this vital information, making it easier for all families to find their ideal neighborhood with great schools within their budget.
